Storm Isha: Full list of the most extreme wind speeds recorded in Northern Ireland during its heaviest phase

The Met Office has listed the top six gusts recorded in the Province from 9pm on Sunday night to midnight Sunday / Monday morning.

The storm played havoc with transport on air, sea and land, and with electricity supplies.

• Stena Line ferry stuck in the Irish Sea for hours amid heavy waves and fierce winds from Storm Isha

• Storm Isha was one notch away from 'hurricane force' conditions in the Irish Sea - with little respite before Storm Jocelyn sweeps across the region

Here we list the locations hardest hit by the fierce winds:

• One: 81 mph Magilligan, Co Londonderry
• Two: 79 mph Castlederg, Co Tyrone
• Three: 76 mph Killowen, Co Down
• Four: 75 mph Orlock Head, Co Down
• Five: 74 mph Ballypatrick Forest, Co Antrim
• Six: 73 mph Glenanne, Co Armagh

However, since the all-time record gust values for Northern Ireland are around 90-95mph, these are not record-breaking wind speeds.

Nonetheless, the Met Office added that “they were the strongest winds of this winter season so far in Northern Ireland”.

The last time there were similar winds was during November 26 and 27, 2021, when 87mph was recorded at Orlock Head.
